History of AHBC - Years of Ministry and Missions
Augusta Heights Baptist Church has celebrated years of ministry on Augusta Road and around the world. On October 8, 1950, an organizational meeting was held and AHBC became a reality. It came into being through the efforts of some dedicated members from Augusta Road Baptist, First Baptist, Pendleton Street and Earle Street Baptist Churches.
The first services were held at Paynes Dairy, which was located across the street from the current location. There were twenty-eight original members.
The church and its people grew under the devoted guidance of the these ministers:

 Rev. DeLoyd Self (1957-82) |
 Dr. Frederick Andrea, III (1983-89) |
 Dr. Kenneth Norris (1990-94) |
 Rev. Howard Wimmer (1995-2006) |

And now, after years, Augusta Heights, under the leadership of our current minister, Tom LeGrand (2012 to present day), is a loving, caring people, standing strong and looking Forward In Faith to a hopeful future. We are an optimistic group, excited about the deepening faith of Gods people and we stand ready to touch the lives of this neighborhood and community with Gods love. May God continue to bless and strengthen this body of faith so that we can fulfill our purpose and mission here on this hill.
